The transonic shock in a nozzle, 2-D and 3-D complete Euler systems (Q935133): Difference between revisions

The authors study the complete steady Euler system in \(\mathbb{R}^2\) and \(\mathbb{R}^3\) in the case when the symmetric supersonic incoming flow goes through the suitably curved nozzle and the scope of the exit pressure is given. The authors focus on the existence and uniqueness of steady and unsteady transonic shocks, the global existence, stability, and the long time asymptotic behavior of an unsteady symmetric transonic shock in a symmetric converging part of the nozzle. It is also shown that an unsteady symmetric transonic shock is structurally unstable in a global-in-time sense if it lies in the symmetric converging part of the nozzle.
